Napacon Gone West

[Spad54]

[FONT=Segoe UI Historic, Segoe UI, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif]I was reviewing a post started by Napacon regarding Bill and Lynn Lyons work. I don't think it was noted on the forum but Vinnie Nappi aka Napacon or Beana 51 went West this past May. He was 88 and a member of our team. As a licensed pilot he was a true supporter of vintage aviation and all things simulation. He will be missed. [/FONT]

Wow, I had no idea. A great guy who, as you said loved vintage airplanes, and reminiscing about his early days as a pilot who loved the old grass strip, out of the way airports. Many years ago he and I put together a series of airport sceneries for the airports he visited (Downsville, White Birch, SkyTop (Michael Carr), Valley View and a few others) He was thrilled and I always felt good that he was able to enjoy the past that way. RIP Vinnie!
